Nevada Hospice Care

A little known secret about us here at Nevada Hospice Care is that we evaluate and treat each patient just as unique as one’s own DNA. Our hospice and palliative care use a holistic approach that addresses the physical, social and spiritual needs of our patients. Our interdisciplinary team is committed to providing the highest possible quality of life for our patients. Our hospice team includes the talents and expertise of many to achieve that goal. Families we touch not only see the difference in the care we provide but more importantly, they feel the difference.

Hospice Care:

Most hospice care is provided in the comfort of your own home or a home of a family member or wherever patients call home. This could be a private residence, a family member’s home, a nursing facility, or an assisted living facility.

Palliative Care:

Palliative care is similar but different than Hospice Care. In palliative care, the patient is still allowed to receive curative treat plans and is expected to live longer than 6 months.

Physician Care Services:

A hospice care physician is responsible for overseeing hospice care and palliative care patients' treatment plans. Such things as medications for symptoms and pain relief.
